EDGEWATER PARTNERS--Please look at what is happening in Northeast Salem (see below). Suggest you take, or at lease look over the survey link. Think about these questions and how you would answer them for Edgewater & West Salem. Would like your feedback at our July Edgewater Partners meeting. Thank you. . .

Hello Neighborhood Association board members and community partners of Salem.

I hope you are enjoying your summer.

We would like to share that City of Salem has just launched Northeast United Survey to hear from Northeast Salem residents, and everyone is invited to participate. Please share the below information with your neighbors and take a few minutes to complete the survey yourself.

The Northeast United Collaboration Survey is designed to gather input directly from community members about the issues they believe are most pressing in their neighborhoods. You are the perfect candidate to take the survey; we want to hear from you.

The survey will be accessible online starting July 7 and will close on August 2. For more information about Northeast United and to participate in the survey, please visit

www.cityofsalem.net/community/northeast-united.

About Northeast United:
Northeast United is a City of Salem initiative focused on outreach and engagement with Northeast Salem neighbors to explore community issues and advance solutions that reflect the community’s voice and needs.

Thank you for your support of our neighborhoods and you continued advocacy.
